You've been tagged.

Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.

To do this, go to “notes” under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish.

________________________________________________________________________________

1. In one way or another, I am in love with everyone I have ever met.

2. My abs are insanely strong, underneath my girl fat. But I want defined abs, probably more than most guys I know.

3. There's nothing I love more than being CHOSEN.

4. I have filled 11 journals since I first started writing when I was 12. I am proud to have a record of who I have been since age twelve to look back on forever. I write about EVERYTHING, everyday if I can. I write about conversations. I analyze people & situations. I write about the things no one cares to ask me about. My journals are the first things I would grab if my house was on fire. Someday I might publish them.

5. My childhood was filled with a lot of pain (& a good bit of joy). But I used my imagination to pretend I was in a different world and was lucky enough to have amazing friends that impacted me so positively that they are the reason I still smile today.

6. My mom is my hero. She is the strongest person I know. She has the kindest heart.

7. I blog. Everyone should blog.

8. A tan body=A hott body. My body does not tan, because my heredity does not allow pigment to be produced in my skin. Therefore, no matter how fit my body is, I will NEVER look hotter than the tan girl sitting next to me at the beach.

9. If I could look like any celebrity it would be Blake Lively. She is beyond gorgeous.

10. I love it when people call me by name. There's also something special about hearing someone say your name for the first time. I like being called Joy.

11. Holidays are my FAVORITE! I always make a big deal of all of them. I always get all worked up with excitement. I buy gifts, make cookies, dress up, etc. I tend to feel disappointed when no one else is as excited as me.

12. I believe patience is the key.

13. I am not the kind of girl who worries about eating in front of other people. I've been known to go to a restaurant with my friends and be the only one eating. That's right, go ahead and watch me eat.

14. I give. Until it hurts. (I try to do for others what I can only wish they will one day think to do for me.)

15. Floor hockey is my sport. I am sad that no one plays it. I might choose the first college i find out has a hockey intramural program...lol! (I have played on rollerblades but it's so difficult)

16. I am the height of the average American male. At 5'8" I feel like a giant.

17. I have never had a valentines date.

18. I am a very nostalgic person.

19. I think about the future in term of relationships, not in terms of what I will accomplish in the world's eyes. I ponder the idea of marriage too often.

20. If the occasion presented itself, I would be the designated driver.

21. I have only one dimple. When I was a toddler I fell on the corner of a low table & long story short now I have a cute, unique dimple!

22. I have an obsession with Love, and with Tragedy.

23. I was not supposed to be born Caucasian. I would have loved to have a unique ethnic heritage to be proud of! I think mixed people are BEAUTIFUL. I wish I was mixed.

24. The days I do not connect/communicate with people are my low days. But at the same time, I am a rather independent person & often get more things done when I'm alone.

25. Sometimes I think I know more about people than they know about themselves. This gets me into trouble.
